Classification: Query
Surnames: Roethlisberger, Dinker
My great-great grandfather was Albert William Roethlisberger (1874-?)who emmigrated to the U.S. from Switzerland as did his brothers Ameil/Emil (1879-?) and Ernest (1884-?). Their father was reportedly a judge in Switzerland. Albert married Sophia Dinker (1871-?) (we think Dinker was the maiden name) and had four children; Albert William (1899-1976), John J. (1901-1995), Anna W. (1903-1980), and Sophia (?-?). If anyone can shed any light on where the family came from in Switzerland I would appreciate it, as well as any ancestors or descendants. Emil's draft card says his birth town but I can't quite make it out, it looks like LOUnm?OA, Switzerland. Email me at storej@monroeville.pa.us.
